Excellent piece by Mike Davies on the new JavaScript-dependent site structure (and URLs) used by all Gawker Media sites:

The main problem is that LifeHacker URLs now don’t map to actual
content. Well, every URL references the LifeHacker homepage. If
you are lucky enough to have the JavaScript running successfully,
the homepage then triggers off several Ajax requests to render the
page, hopefully with the desired content showing up at some point.

Far more complicated than a simple URL, far more error prone, and
far brittler.
